Why June Is a Great Time to Start Regular Waxing

June is when holidays get booked, summer dresses come out, and the last thing you want to think about is shaving every few days. If you've been meaning to try waxing, this is a good time to start.
Why waxing beats shaving for summer
Shaving removes hair at the surface. Waxing removes it from the root, which means results last several weeks rather than a day or two.
For most people, that difference is significant in summer. Less maintenance while you're away. No stubble appearing halfway through a holiday. Just smooth skin that stays smooth.
If you're new to waxing, June is also a practical time to begin because you have the whole summer ahead of you. With regular appointments, hair tends to grow back finer and softer over time, making each session a little more comfortable than the last.
Book a few days before you travel
Skin can be slightly sensitive after waxing, so we usually recommend booking a few days before a holiday rather than the day before. That gives everything time to settle and means you're at your best when you arrive.
What to expect after your appointment
For the first 24 to 48 hours after waxing, it's worth avoiding hot baths, saunas, sun beds, and anything that causes heavy sweating. Tight clothing on freshly waxed areas isn't ideal either. Keep the skin clean and moisturised and it will settle quickly.
If it's your first time, don't worry — your therapist will talk you through everything beforehand.
Our waxing treatments
Lip and chin waxing Quick, precise, and leaves skin feeling clean and smooth. A good option if you're dealing with unwanted facial hair and want a longer-lasting result than threading or creams.
Underarm waxing Longer-lasting smoothness without the daily routine. Many clients find this one of the most convenient switches they make.
Half leg waxing One of our most popular treatments from June through to September. Ideal before holidays, weekends away, or any time you want to feel put-together without the upkeep.
Bikini waxing Removes hair outside the bikini line for a neat, tidy finish. Great for swimwear season.
Extended bikini waxing Goes a little further than a standard bikini wax, removing more hair for extra confidence in swimwear and summer clothing.
Brazilian waxing — now available Our newest treatment. Removes most hair from the intimate area, leaving a small strip or triangle at the front depending on your preference. If you're unsure whether bikini, extended bikini or Brazilian is the right choice, just ask. We're happy to talk it through without any pressure.
Back and shoulder waxing - now available Popular with men before holidays and events. Removes unwanted hair from the upper back and shoulders for a cleaner look and less daily upkeep. Results last significantly longer than shaving, with skin feeling smoother between appointments.
Why we use warm wax for intimate treatments
For bikini, extended bikini and Brazilian waxing, we use warm wax rather than traditional strip wax. It grips the hair more effectively, is gentler on sensitive skin, and reduces the risk of bruising. Most clients find it noticeably more comfortable — particularly if they've had a less-than-pleasant experience elsewhere.
